| Summer Diet Begins! |
I was gonna wait until this weekend to start but I was watching this CSI episode where this gross guy ate himself to death so I didn't eat for the first half of the day. It seemed like a good time to start the diet.
The Goals:
- Lose about 35 lbs
- Strength training 5 days a week
- Cardio 6 days a week
- Yoga in the morning 7 days a week
- WRITE EVERYTHING I EAT DOWN
- Make food from scratch (pack lunches)
- Brush teeth after every meal
I really wanna pull a lot of meal replacement shakes into my diet. Shakes that I can make at home and take with me are convenient and tasty and filling. They are super healthy too! I found some really great recipes now I just gotta find something to put them in....I bet my coffee thermos would work well, since its insulated.
Today:
Lunch- Lettuce wrap with slice of lean turkey, cheese, cucumber, tomato, mushrooms and a drizzle of raspberry vinaigrette dressing.
Dinner- Spinach and Artichoke Pinwheels
- 1 package (17.3 ounces) Pepperidge Farm® Puff Pastry Sheets, thawed
- 1/2 cup fat free mayonnaise
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon chopped onion
- 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 package (10 ounces) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and well drained
- 1 can (14 ounces) artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
and about 1/3 cup steamed broccoli
30 min Jog and about 15 mins of yoga
Snack - Plain yogurt with cinnamon a few blueberries and glass of orange juice.
5 mins of yoga before bed
I did pretty well this half of the day. I did have more "bad" carbs than I would have like with dinner tonight. I'll have to do better tomorrow. Also I didn't get in the strength training I needed today. I'm not worried, since today is the first day of the diet. I'll be sure to work it in tomorrow. Also, I injured my ankle earlier this week so instead of running I'll be walking/jogging for the next few days.
The Plan For Tommorrow
I want to get up a little earlier in the morning and get in about 10-15 mins of yoga. Make my banana almond power smoothie and pack a lunch. Lunch I'm thinking will be lemon pepper tuna a tomato and cucumber salad with light italian dressing and a bit of cottage cheese. For a snack a boiled egg. Dinner tomorrow night, marinated chicken in balsamic vinegar with onions and garlic and brown rice. I think I'll get the chicken marinated tonight. Cardio - short run, 45 mins of stretching, upper body work out with resistance band. |
